Does the rear hatch door swing all the way open with the tire carrier open? Any pics of the clearance?

Yes, it clears with an inch or two, i set the stop to give enough clearance for the door to fully open. I will take a picture.

What did not clear was the cord grip when the door was closed, I had to grind some of the cord grip down to clear the door. but it still rubs some. You can see some scuffing in the paint if you look close.
